World Summit AI

Building a business with AI? There’s plenty to keep up with. And only so many hours you can spend reading about it.
On 7 and 8 October, World Summit AI brings startup founders, investors, researchers and people from larger companies to Taets Art & Event Park in Zaandam, near Amsterdam. Over two days, you can hear what others are working on, see new products and meet people who could be relevant to your next step.
The event combines talks, product launches, an exhibition and opportunities to connect with other attendees. Topics range from new AI technology to how businesses use it, alongside questions about safety and responsible development.
For founders, that means a chance to step away from your own to-do list and ask bigger questions. What could these developments mean for your product? Who else is trying to solve similar problems? And which companies or people would be useful to get to know?
Who is it for?
The summit is particularly relevant for startups developing AI products and technology. It may also interest founders and technical teams exploring how to use AI in their business, or looking to understand what potential customers need.
What can you get out of it?
- Ideas for your product. Explore the exhibition and product showcases to see what other companies are building and where your own solution could fit.
- Lessons from other founders. Hear founder stories and get different perspectives on building a business around AI.
- Potential business connections. Meet people from startups, larger companies and investment firms. Depending on your goals, those conversations could be about customers, partnerships or funding.
- A clearer view of what’s changing. Hear directly from researchers and people developing AI technology, and consider which developments deserve your team’s attention.
You don’t need to attend every session to make the trip worthwhile. Pick the topics most relevant to your business, think about who you’d like to meet, and leave room for a few unexpected conversations.
